Can Froch beat Ward?

[Sparked_1985]

I can see Froch getting thrown out against Ward.

He's so dirty.

And Froch is ruthless.

Pretty close to what Panda said; I think this is a very tough fight for Froch, harder than a lot of people make out. If he can get past GJ then he has a great chance at upsetting the Ward express

[Pastrano]

Froch's rangy Jab gives him a chance in any fight. And he is gutsy enough to deal with Wards relentless cheating and dirty tactics.

I like Froch's chances, but what scares me about Ward is that he hasnt lost a fight since he was in junior high. Undefeated in the pros and amateurs.

Well, bout time for him to lose then, eh?

[BritishBoxing92]

depends really but i reckon he can as long as ward does not hug every time froch gets on the inside..

[J.R]

Yes. In all honesty I think he can. He hits as hard, his chin is better, and I feel has more hunger, Ward has the edge in speed and boxing skills, but as we can see, Froch has the ability there, he just needs to use it. So yes, I feel he can.

It does elude to a very high ring I.Q though.

It' so easy to lose at amateur level at the top-level of the game. With these kind of super-amateurs that have the system down to tee. Like some of those guys at the Olympics some of those guys didn't even look like particularly promising fighters but they knew the system and stole fights.

Yep, he gotta bully Ward. Not fight him from distance, but the inside. Skip the outside fighting for the infighting. Froch can jab too tho, so he should use that as well, but only to an extent. Man, I hope this fight happens...like him or not, you can't deny Cobra always brings a good fight.

no doubt....but i think froch should try to fight from the outside as much as he can...ward would defintely try to make this an inside fight ,when it becomes one, froch should outheadbutt , outelbow and outclinch his ass to death but needs to do it intelligently so he would'nt get penalized ...

[IMDAZED]

Absolutely he can. But I'm not picking until I see how he does against the Road Warrior.

[UmarImranKhalil]

Yes. In all honesty I think he can. He hits as hard, his chin is better, and I feel has more hunger, Ward has the edge in speed and boxing skills, but as we can see, Froch has the ability there, he just needs to use it. So yes, I feel he can.

Froch hits harder than Ward punch for punch and we don't know enough about Ward's chin to say.


If you think Froch's desire is greater than Ward's, though, you either know nothing about Ward or have him completely misjudged, which doesn't come as any surprise.

That is the one department in which Ward and Froch have total parity and that's why I said before the tournament that, styles and outward personalities aside, these were the two of the 6 who had the most in common with each other (the introduction of The Road Warrior be damned). And that's why a meeting between those 2 would be the most fitting conclusion to this tournament.

[UmarImranKhalil]

Ward and Froch are the most ruthless, determined and desirous of the original 6, no question.


This fight would fascinate.
